So around this time 3 years ago I attempted my 1st PTR and well never quite got around to following it up, the excitement of it all took over and work was so crazy at the time I remember just being so happy our travel day had arrived after 18 months waiting
Anyways we had an amazing time, stayed onsite at RPR, fell in love with Universal & orlando (not Disney fans) went to Halloween Horror Nights, SeaWorld, Aquatica, Wet and Wild and Busch Gardens. Oh and saw Janet Jackson in Concert!
So fast forward to now my husband Rob and I have since bought a house and our puppy Jackson who just turned one and has taken over our lives in the most wonderful way!
My 40th is in October and one Sunday in March we were having a few afternoon drinks as you do and we started discussing how cool it would be to go to orlando, just the two of us for my bday and you know what, we booked it then and there. Very Random!
So our Itinerary is quite relaxed but the plan is ....
We are staying at Gatwick North Premier Inn on the 19th Sept
We are flying with Virgin on 20th September, 1st time in Premium because I'm turning 40 off course (you will hear that a lot this trip)
Staying at RPR for the whole 2 weeks
leaving on the 6th October and arriving back in the UK on my actual bday
We've got our Universal Park Tickets as well as HHN for 6 nights and express passes for both. SeaWorld, Aquatica, Volcano Bay and Busch Gardens booked too
We are very chilled travellers, but ideally most days will involve getting up, going to the parks, then having pool afternoons and parks in the evening
We love all food and drink and plan on trying a few places we missed last time and off course checking out Universals sister hotels too
and I promise ill actually keep this trip report going once I get back
Cheers
Matt
